Show Notes

It's a juggernaut this week on The Retrograde, as Andrew and Mikey look back at the game that changed platformers forever. We also discuss the Overwatch League's deal with ESPN, Mikey's obsession with sad Christmas movies, and our number one favourite topic: Dwayne Johnson. Were the sound, speed, and design of Sonic be enough to make it playable today, or did this game's lack of longevity foreshadow the decline of Sega?
